THE PALMETTO STATE.

We have just spent week in
South Carolina, looking after the in
terests of the MESSENGER and noting
the progress of our people. The
State Fair at Columbia was grand
thing, in spite of the rain. The trains
on all the roads leading in the city
were crowded to their utmost capacity.
Three sections were run daily on the
c., G. "a. road and each was crowded
to the bottom step of the cars. The
majority of travel seemed to be from
the colored people.
The Synod of the Atlantic was held
in Columbia last week. This Synod
embraces South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida. 1t has number of able
men; Rev. L. j. Grimke, a gradu
ate of Princeton College, being among
them. A very pleasant and interest
ing feature of the Synod was the Wo-
mems Missionary meeting, presided
over by Mrs. Eva Chase Williams.
Mrs. Williams is the most interesting
female speaker we ever heard. She
speaks without notes, and her address
on this occasion would do credit to
any of the leading lights of the day.
The effect of the Church trouble of
year or two since are plainly seen on
all sides. The A. NJ. 4. Church lost
here one of the largest congregations
in the South, also several preachers.
This congregation is now with the G..
NJ. E. Church and have nearly COM
pleted very large Church near the
main street. Rev. Mr.. Stinson is in
charge of the Church.
Rev. Z. Hinton has organized and
is building a Church under the auspi-
ces of the A. NJ. Il. Zion Church.
He is doing well.
The colored people of the city seem
to be getting on pretty well. There
is a superabundance of young ladies,
but it seems that the principal fault
with the young men is, they are not
ambitious enough to learn trades, pro-
fessions, and 60 into manly business
for themselves. The future hope Of
our race depends alike upon the char
acter of our girls and manhood Of our
young men.
Among the progressive young men
of the State is Mr.. Peter +. Oliver, a
young lawyer and school teacher. n
We need more such men. Major G..
d. Lowndes, Mr.. f. W. Williams.
and J. p Evans are among the pro-
gressive business men of the city.
The Conference of the A. NJ Il
Zion Church convened in Yorkvillc
on Wednesday. Bishop S. I. Jones,
DID, in the chair. The Bishops adj
dress was pointed, and referred to the
correctional institutions, and especial
ly Livingstone College and its work
This is not as large as the North Caro-
lima Conference, but has in it some
promising young ministers. Rev. G.
W. Clinton has been spoken of as a
possible candidate for the editorship
Of the Church organ. j. b. COLDER
and w. II. McMullen are the secre-
taries; T. p r. Moore, reporter to
the MESSENGER G.. w. Clinton, re-
porter to the Star Of Zioa. Rev. NJ.
Ingram, Of Rock Hill, preached the
annual sermon on Wednesday night ;
Rev. G.. W. Clinton preached the
missionary annual sermon on Thurs
day night A reports Of Conference
will be given next week.

BAD MEAT BEING SOLD.
DISEASED CATTLE SLAUGHTERED
FOR THE MARKET.

Cheap Meats and the People Who Buy
Them-How Inscriptions Butchers
Impose Upon Their Customers-The
Need of a Meat Inspector.
A few days ago a suspicious beef was
found in the market house, and upon ex-
animation it was discovered that it was in
an unwholesome condition Ii was seized
by the authorities, and destroyed. This in
cident has caused good many people to
talk about the kind of meat that is sold in
the market, and it has brought to light the
fact that there is a good deal of bad meat
taken there. Scarcely a car load of cattle
comes to this market, Market Clerk Mat
tox says, but one at least Of the
animals has been trampled upon and badly
bruised. These beeves are not bought by
the better class of butchers but some of
those who sell cheap meat purchase them for
a nominal price and sell them at 10 or IL
cents a pound They are unfit for food but
no one except judge of meat could tel,
when they are in the stalls that they are I'M
wholesome
WHERE THE MEAT COMES FROM.
Not very long ago four calves were almost
i'll dying condition, and people who saw
them said that they would have died within
a few hours, but a butcher bought them
and they We're sold Unfortunately in the
market. The number of hogs that die and
are cut up and brought to the market by
the negroes cannot be told, as there is no
watch kept over them, but bad meat of all
sorts, beef, pork and mutton, is sold. G. A.
Drayton, a butcher in the market, said that
much of this bad meat is given to children
who go to the market TO: their parents.
Not being able to tell good meat from bad
they are given the worst on the
shelf, and when it is cooked and
served upon the table, those who may eat
it know that their butcher has not sold
them "choice cut" but they do not know
that the meat is unfit for food. Then, too,
he said, there are many people who will not
buy beef at pc. a pound if at another
stall they can get it for 15c They do not
seem to care whether the beef is good or
bad so long as it is cheap. Such people eat
bad meat almost every day.
AN INSPECTOR WANTED.
He thought the only thing to be done is to
appoint meat inspector to examine all the
animals before they are killed, and if they
are not in a proper condition and are not
properly slaughtered he should not permit
them to be sent to market. The beef that
was seized some days ago was blind, and
had fallen up against pile of lumber and
cut its side. The animal was driven
TO the slaughter house and was
so near dead that it could not
walk all the way. 1t was whipped until it
fell down and was whipped up to its feet
again Three times it fell down and finally
was put in cart and hauled to the slaughter
pen. 1t seems that the city authorities are
willing to appoint an inspector, but they
cannot get a competent man at the price
they wish to pay All of the responsible
butchers are exceedingly anxious for the ap
pointment of an inspector.

PRISONERS PILING UP.
The Jail Overcrowed-Doubl up in
the Cells.

The Jail Overcrowed-Doubli up in
the Cells.
What to do with the inmates of the Jail is
becoming a serious question. There are
now twelve women crowded into eight cells
and sixty-two men in thirty-one cells. Both
the insane cells are occupied by lunatics who
have to be held here because the Ordinary
is absent and their examinations cannot be
held. One of them, man named Hayward
is violently insane. He howls and screams
all the night long, and not only makes it
impossible for his fellow prisoners to sleep,
but he dsturbs the slumbers of the people
of the neighborhood and they are loud in
their complaints.
He cannot be sent to the asylum until
Judge Ferrill returns in October, but mean
while he is driving the other prisoners to
lunacy almost, by depriving them of sleep
and keeping them constantly annoyed while
they are awake. Neither Judge Harden nor
Judge Adams will return before November,
and what will be done with the number of
prisoners who will be committed to Jail in
the meantime is a question of importance
Even now it is sometimes necessary to put
four in one cell, and the cells are not large
enough for any four human beings to live
in.
One of the principal reasons for the estab-
fishing of the City Court was to have a
court that would sit weekly and keep the
Jail clear, but in adiourning for four and
five months at a time, prevents the carry
ing out of this purpose, inflicts an unusual
hardship upon the prisoners, and embar-
raises the authorities very greatly

MEN WHO HAVE MONEY.
Good-Natured Stories About Some
Western Millionaires.


From the Chicago Herald.
Good-natured stories about the men who

West. A fellow walked into Nat Jones
Office one day and looked around furtively.

looked the picture of man whose luck
and even hope were all gone He caught
the eye of Ream, who was one of a group
sitting near the blackboard. The
big specuator sprang up and hur-
rying toward the dilapidated- blocking
caller, grasped him by the hand "Why,
john he said, chow are youm The two
talked for few minutes and then the visi-
cor told his story He had had awful bad
luck with his last ioad OF cattle, his money
was all gone and he was actually hungry.
Would Ream let him have half dollar
for square mealH The big man went
down in his pocket. Fifty dollars was
pressed into the ragged looking fellows

leave.taking took some minutes, and out of

NEW ORLEANS WINS TWICE.
Charleston Pitchers Batted All Over
the Field.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 25.-New Orleans
won both games with ease to-day. The
umpiring of Wells was so manifestly partial
to Charleston that the visitors could not
find single ground for complaint The
morning game was won by the locals
pounding the life out of Smith in one in
ming, while Widner held Charleston down
to low ebb. Charleston fielded superbly,
and the work of Glenn and Carl was won
derful. Geiss at second and the two catch
ers carried. off the other fielding honors.
The morning crowd numbered about LOCO.
IN the afternoon the crowd reached nearly
5000, and the locals acknowledged the COM
pliment by playing their greatest game this
season. They gave Hungler terrific
drubbing and the Charlestons were little
demorahzed in consequence, Glenn muffing
two flies. New Orleans played perfect
fielding game, although the nine was little
bruised up. Fuller was hurt before the
game, After playing while he changed
places with Powell. Vaughn had his nose
almost broken by speedy pitched ball and
gave way to McVey, finishing the game in
centre. The fielding honors were carried
off by Geiss, Bradley and Campau.

summary of the morning game.

Warm Wave On It's Way.


The cold wave will have run its course
to-day, and this morning the weather will

is central over the Southeastern States and
is moving southeasterly. The Northwest
